    TW 13 Tournament interest?

    So TW13 is coming out on the 27th and I was wondering if there is any interest in having a tournament or even a league like there has been in the past?

    I think Cdub managed the TW10 B&B league so I'd hit him up for some help and run the sucker pretty much like that for a league. A one nighter would have to be a little different I think.

    So if you are interested in either or both let me know and maybe we'll get one rolling.

    If the reviews are good Coke, I'll pickup TW13 and play. I used to play the hell out of the old TW games on my Xbox, it's been a while though.

    The first Daily and weekly Club tournaments are live in the club now. This process will make setting up tournaments and even the league much easier. Took a screenshot:



    This new module allows the GM, in this case me, to set up tournaments that are just like the ones EA sets up. The results are tracked in the CC section of TW13.

    Some of you are waiting for the skinny on TW13 before buying. I can understand that. The biggest changes I have seen go something like this:
    1. No 3 click.
    2. The swing mechanic takes some getting used to especially for pitching/chipping/and putting.
    3. It is difficult to tell which courses are available/not available for you to play on because of the new micro transactions, all are available in the menus even if you don't have a particular course.
    4. Bag pins are also linked into the in game coin system which are also tied into the micro transaction system.
    5. Micro transactions are a bit over the top this year but not needed for play on, I think, its 16 courses. 22 for the CE. There are an additional 12 for DLC.
    6. Tiger through the ages is different and difficult to describe. (I haven't spent much time there yet.)
    7. Textures need updating.
    8. Overall difficulty if left at default is kinda easy.

    Here is a quote that details the MCs better than I have:

    I typically haven’t had a problem with microtransactions or DLC in retail games, but with Tiger Woods PGA Tour13, I feel like EA has their hands out every few minutes asking for another round of Microsoft Points. There’s the old Free To Play trick in this game of giving players a currency, coins in this case, and having them earn the currency from their play. Once earned, you can spend your currency to unlock rounds on DLC courses or to purchase boost pins that will give your player an edge in the game – it gives you a taste of the DLC, but nothing more. In this game you can access all the content, unlockables and other doodads, but not without some serious time investment to get coins. They put upgrades and new courses just out of reach for any sane player and push microtransactions as the easy way around your frustration. I wish there was an option to flat out remove the listing for courses and other DLC that are not active on the disc.

    Verdict
    This is a fine entry to the series and any hardcore fan will enjoy the new mechanics and modes the game has to offer. Kinect controls will bring a group or party together for a fun casual game that will keep you entertained for hours. With a price tag of $60 it’s strange that EA has gone with the Free to Play feel with all the microtransactions that have been thrown in the game. It’s a huge distraction and gets annoying quick. With all of that this game is a definite buy for those who love the series or want to enjoy their Kinect for an upgrade to the golf in Kinect Sports, but if you’re buying this game just for the Kinect integration you will be sad to find out that the controls are very precise and require patience.



    So anyway I'm enjoying the game without paying to play and just sitting on the couch with a controller.

    Just to let everyone know we now have 5 people signed up and in the AGE country club. If you're getting TW13 don't forget to join, you earn extra coins by being in the club.
